It’s a long weekend up here in Auckland this weekend, and I’ve got off to a pretty yukky start. Woke up with a completely inexplicable 22.5. The worst thing is – I was awake at 4:45am so did a quick BG test then (I hardly ever test in the night) and it was 8.6 so I topped up with an extra unit. Then, just four hours later it’s at a whopping 22.5. My pump shows no signs of not delivering (no blockage messages, cannula still intact etc) so I’ve given myself a huge correction bolus and now have that long wait for it to come down. I reckon it will take about three hours til I’m anywhere near a BG I can have some food with. Booooo.

EDIT: An hour later it’s dropped to 18.5 so it obviously wasn’t a pump blockage, just one of those crazy days as a diabetic. Never mind, the weather’s awesome out there so I’m off to get a move on with my day. Have a great weekend people!
